I had the same problem but with 2 desktops and only 1.5 Gb of memory
each.

I dumped the Gnome desktop for Xfce https://wiki.debian.org/Xfce and got
instant relief.

Not as fancy-shmancy but works fantastic.


Takes minutes to install and no brains.

[ apt-get install xfce4 ]

[ apt-get install xfce4-goodies ]

Leaves Gnome installed and you can simply choose Xfce as the Desktop
alternative at login.
